Editorial Policy

This Editorial Policy explains how MyWorkspaceWise approaches its content, research, product information, recommendations, updates, corrections, and commercial relationships.

MyWorkspaceWise exists to provide useful information about workspaces, tools, technology, and the way people work.

The goal is not to publish content simply to fill the site. Each article should have a clear purpose for the reader, whether that means answering a common question, explaining a product choice, comparing options, or helping solve a practical workspace problem.

The general editorial process is:

Reader question or problem → Research → Organize the information → Explain the important details → Consider trade-offs → Review → Publish → Update when necessary

This does not mean every article follows the exact same process. The amount and type of research depends on the subject.

Topics are selected based on whether they can provide useful information to readers.

This may include:

Questions that people commonly ask can help identify useful subjects, but search interest alone is not enough reason to publish an article.

The main consideration is whether the topic gives the reader something useful to understand, compare, or act on.

The research approach depends on the subject being covered.

When appropriate, MyWorkspaceWise may use sources such as:

Different claims call for different sources.

For example, manufacturer documentation may be useful when confirming a product's dimensions, features, materials, or warranty. Research about workplace practices may be better supported by studies, universities, government information, professional organizations, or reputable publications.

The source should be relevant to the claim being made. MyWorkspaceWise does not treat every source as equally suitable for every subject.

MyWorkspaceWise makes a reasonable effort to provide accurate and useful information.

Depending on the article, important details may include:

Some of this information can change over time. Prices may change, products may be discontinued, warranties may be updated, and companies may change their policies or product specifications.

When practical, current information should be checked before it is presented as current.

This does not mean every statement is independently verified, and MyWorkspaceWise does not claim 100% accuracy. Readers should also consider when an article was published or last updated, particularly when the information can change frequently.

Product-related content should help readers understand their options rather than simply tell them what to buy.

Depending on the product and the purpose of the article, relevant factors may include:

There is rarely one product that is right for everyone.

A useful recommendation should explain why an option may be worth considering, who it may suit, what limitations it has, and when another option may make more sense.

For example, a desk with a particular size or adjustment range may work well for one workspace but create problems in a smaller room. A feature that matters to one reader may be unnecessary for another.

For this reason, MyWorkspaceWise avoids simply calling a product "the best" without explaining the reasoning behind the recommendation.

Meaningful drawbacks should not be hidden just because a product has useful features.

MyWorkspaceWise does not imply first-hand product testing unless genuine testing has taken place.

Phrases such as:

should only be used when there has actually been first-hand experience with the product.

There is an important difference between product research and personal experience.

Content may be based on:

Researching a product extensively does not mean the product was personally tested.

When content is based on available research, specifications, and published information, it should be presented as research-based information rather than personal experience.

Useful editorial content should not hide the fact that most products and approaches involve trade-offs.

When relevant, articles should explain:

A product can have strong features while still having limitations that matter to certain readers.

The purpose of explaining these differences is to give readers enough context to make their own decisions. MyWorkspaceWise does not claim to determine the perfect choice for every reader.

Some information changes over time.

Examples include:

When practical, MyWorkspaceWise should review information that may have become outdated.

There is no promise that every article is continuously monitored, and MyWorkspaceWise does not promise a specific update schedule unless one has been established for that content.

When an important change becomes known, the relevant information may be reviewed and updated.

Mistakes can happen, and information that was accurate when published can become outdated.

When a factual error or outdated information is identified, MyWorkspaceWise aims to review and correct the affected information.

Readers are encouraged to report factual errors, outdated information, or other issues that may affect the accuracy or usefulness of an article.

More information about reporting errors is available on the Corrections page.

Significant factual corrections should be handled transparently rather than treating important changes as though the original information had never existed.

An affiliate link is a link that may allow MyWorkspaceWise to earn a commission if a reader makes a qualifying purchase through that link. The reader may pay the same price, although the specific terms of an affiliate relationship can vary.

Not every article contains affiliate links, and an affiliate relationship does not automatically mean a product is recommended.

Product information and recommendations should still consider the reader's needs, intended use, budget, and circumstances. Prices and availability can also change after an article is published.

The editorial goal is to provide useful information and meaningful context rather than simply encourage purchases.

For more information about how affiliate relationships work on MyWorkspaceWise, see the Affiliate Disclosure page.

AI tools may be used as part of the content development process where appropriate.

AI is not treated as an independent source of truth. Information generated or assisted by AI should be reviewed for:

AI-generated information should not be presented as established fact simply because it sounds authoritative.

The same editorial standards apply to information developed with assistance from AI. Content should still be useful, understandable, and appropriate for the reader.

MyWorkspaceWise aims to provide useful editorial information rather than simply repeat marketing claims.

Manufacturer information can be useful, especially for product specifications and official features, but a manufacturer's description is not automatically an independent editorial conclusion.

Where relevant, content should distinguish between:

Marketing claims should not automatically be presented as established facts. Recommendations should include relevant context and limitations so readers can understand what the information actually means.

Because MyWorkspaceWise may use affiliate links, the publication does not claim complete independence from commercial relationships. The practical editorial principle is to provide useful information that helps readers make informed decisions rather than simply encouraging purchases.

Readers can contact MyWorkspaceWise about:

Reader feedback can help identify information that needs clarification, correction, or updating.

Readers should expect MyWorkspaceWise to focus on clear explanations and practical information.

That includes:

The goal of an editorial policy is not to suggest that mistakes or changes will never happen. It is to make the publication's approach clear.

MyWorkspaceWise aims to give readers useful information, relevant context, and enough detail to understand their options so they can make their own decisions.
